As John pointed out, the nose needs to be a bit more round. Also you need to move the window pilars back a bit ( see attached shot ). The only other advise I can give you is to take a look at as many pictures of the nose, till you start seeing stars :-hahThe 320 series nose is a pain in the butt to model, believe me, I know.Take care,Udo :-wavewww.YeoDesigns.comhttp://forums.avsim.com/user_files/3631.jpg

Thanks for the tips but i just decided to start the fuselage all-over again. So any tips on how to make the nose right now? I have got my Cylinder, and Scaled it so that it is the right shape on the blueprints. Now, shall i cut out windows or start scalling like the top halves of cicles an stuff? ThanksAndy

[Guest PhLem]

The best time to cut out windows is after you have scaled the nose both top and left ( right ). That way you can work a bit easier on the small adjustments to get everything just right :-hahUdo :-wave

Yeah that what i fought. I went back to this nose which i was working on though, because the one i made was no where near as good and was alot more polys, not saying that mine is that good anyway!Andy:-wave
